Timeline of pioneering advances at Wilcoxon Sensing Technologies

Wilcoxon engineers have been responsible for many advances in piezoelectric accelerometers. Some of our key accomplishments and milestones are listed below:

1960 Wilcoxon Research, Inc. is founded by a group of entrepreneurial scientists from the US Navy’s David Taylor Research Center (now the Naval Surface Warfare Center)

1961 First piezoelectric accelerometer to incorporate an integrally-isolated base, eliminating the requirement for frequency-limiting adapters

1963 Identified and specified the effects of base strain sensitivity and incorporated integral strain filters in compression-type models, while expanding lines of bending- and shear-type models which are immune to base strain

1964 Delineated and specified the magnetic and acoustic sensitivity of piezoelectric vibration transducer

June 2017Amphenol Corporation purchased the Wilcoxon Research brand and the Meggitt (Maryland), Inc. business in its entirety. New d.b.a. and brand is Wilcoxon Sensing Technologies. New legal name is Amphenol (Maryland), Inc.

July 2017New Wilcoxon Sensing Technologies logo introduced

October 2018Open new factory and office building in Frederick, Maryland
